Product name
Hitman Pro Alert
Pros
  • - Light on system (30-40mb )
    - easy to use
    - complete exploit mitigations features
    - many very useful preventive features
    - integrate Hitman Pro malware scanner
CONS
- the malware scanner may gives you false positives
- must have the licensed version to enjoy it fully (all for free will be to easy lol)
BOTTOM LINE
HMPA is a must-have in term of exploit protection, in conjunction with its integrated malware scanner you have a robust protection against malwares. Its simplicity to use will not scare users from the beginners to the experts.

@Tony Cole: Technically its correct.

Actually there are 2 main scenarios how a sandbox-aware malware works.

1) If it detects a presence of VM/Sandbox, it will not run and instead an error for the operation shown.
2) Meanwhile the second one, drops some mechanism which the sandbox have weak point at all per Malwarebytes answer.

Thanks James! Do you know if it's okay to use the Pro version (as I have a license key) with ESET v 9

I couldn't use Eset banking protection until i uninstalled HitmanPro.Alert i tried disabling all HitmanPro.Alert functions did not work i disabled background processes and service and still banking protection did not work, after i uninstalled HitmanPro.Alert it was working, don't know if the latest version fix that issue i switch to MBAE & Zemana AntiLogger.

Doesn't work anymore for me. It freezed my screen so that I had to manually shut down. I uninstalled it, now I haven't anymore such troubles. I don't know what's happening with the latest versions. I like this program but I can't not more run this program.

It is compatible with CIS? Running CIS on my laptop at the moment.

@CMLew yes it is



as you can see ;

Chrome running sandboxed in Sandboxie (green border), with HMPA (the 3 colored notifications ) and Adguard (the little circle behind the HMPA notifications) protecting the browser while CIS is monitoring.

Thanks @Umbra
Since I do not install Sanboxie, I guess mine should be easier. Any configuration need to be done like white-listing/exception for each other, etc??

indeed, try to use it as normal, if there is a problem do this:

- HMPA must be added as Trusted in File Rating section of CIS (File Rating > File List > you have to add HMPA as trusted

- Add HMPA in CIS > HIPS Setting > Shellcode Injection exclusions > you have to add HMPA

let me know if those exclusions works, if not i will tell you more to do.
